Nick and Starr take it all!
Thanks to ekrubmi for the Flickr photo.
So Nick and Starr keep their winning ways and do so for when it matters. The creative editing team made it look like there may have been some issues with taxis, but when you're anyone but Andrew and Dan, things can go alright.
Several of us placed our bets on Nick and Starr and came out ahead. What do you think the comparison of air time compared to Dandrew and Nick and Starr/Ken and Tina.
The bets were placed as follows:
Adam Nick/Starr 2010
Tracy Nick/Starr 2785
Linda Ken/Tina 3330
Mark Nick/Starr 1780
Amy 1480
Tyson Dan/Andrew 1140
And the scores after the Nick/Starr victory (something like 6 I think - that's more than half of the legs!)
Tracy 5570
Adam 4020
Mark 3560
Congrats Tracy - you took home the top prize! Which is bragging rights - yeeha!
Here's a great Wikipedia page about the race
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Race_13
- it's official, Nick and Starr won 7 of the 11 legs! Ken and Tina won 3 and Toni and Dallas won 1. That shows the level of competition between the teams this season.
Thanks for playing and I'm sorry I didn't always get bonus stuff out or update all the time, but I had fun. I hope you did and maybe we'll do it again.

Week Ten Scores
Fun fun fun!
Great to see Nick and Starr back on top. Dandrew did okay - but too bad they need other teams to royally mess up for them to do well. Although, they seemed to clear the Detours just fine this time and didn't leave their shoes anywhere.
Toni and Dallas - at least they won a leg before getting sent home.
Anyone else catch the fact that the mandatory rest stop seemed longer than the normal 12 hours? Usually they say the times of when they arrive and then the same time 12 hours later when they leave. But this time around they didn't. The conspirasist in me says that the producers had the speedbump planned, but totally changed it to dancing when they reviewed last week's marching of Dandrew, and needed more time to make it happen.
I'm kinda happy with the final three. I'm sure Nick and Starr and Toni and Dallas are really pleased that Dandrew is playing the final leg.
I'm impressed with the clues these last couple weeks - somewhat challenging and next week's goodies look to be fun too.
No big losers this week. Although Tracy and Linda lost a team. Details for next week's leg will be posted after this week's scores.
Week ten
Adam 210/2010
Tracy 50/2785
Linda 140/3330
Mark 150/1780
Amy 150/1480
Tyson 0/1140
For the final leg. Tyson - you're included! You will be betting your points Jeopardy-style. So those of us behind Linda and Tracy, we could still have a shot.
Take your points and bet them against any team/s you like. That means you can split your points up between two teams (or more) or place them all on one team. Or bet 1/3 of your points on one team. Just one thing - you must make a bet.
Give me your bets by Saturday night. I'll work on some bonus points this week.
Good luck!
